Your phone is probably
SIM-locked to a specific operator's SIM card. This is usually the case when you
buy the phone from an operator. SIM- locked phones may be unlocked – contact

"Insert SIM" message is normally displayed on phones when a SIM card is not inserted on power-on or it does not detect the SIM card inserted.

Likely Causes:
